If none of these plans meet your specific needs, you can build your own plan so you have the exact coverage that you need.

Extended Contract Features

Elite Home Warranty coverage is available for undetectable pre-existing conditions, items without maintenance records, insufficient maintenance, code violations and permits, rust, corrosion, sediment, lifting equipment, lodging expenses and food spoilage, refrigerate recapture, reclaim and disposal, and the dismantle and removal of defective equipment and items. Many of these conditions are not commonly covered by home warranty companies.

Elite Home Warranty also offers coverage for professional grade appliances, a service that isn't offered by many home warranty companies — the average service fee for professional grade appliances is $150.

Claims Concierge

Elite Home Warranty focuses on helping each customer through the claims process and ensuring that their needs are met, per their established agreement. 

Claims can be filed online 24/7, but Elite Home Warranty also has a Claims Concierge, connecting a customer with a single point of contact throughout the entire claims process. The point of contact will keep you updated, providing information and answering questions, through each step of the way after you've filed a claim.

Licensed and Insured Technicians

Elite Home Warranty has a large network of vetted technicians that can address any need and provide high-quality service. If you work with an Elite technician, you are also provided with a 90-day workmanship warranty.

If you have your own technician that you'd like to work with, you are free to do so, but workmanship isn't guaranteed by Elite Home Warranty — if any appliance or system fails within the term, you will be responsible for covering any additional service call fees.

Money-Back Guarantee

Elite Home Warranty stands out from competitors because it offers a 60-day money-back guarantee. The first 60 days include the 30-day waiting period and the first 30 days of coverage.

If you cancel during this period, you'll receive a full refund of contract fees. If you cancel after this period, you'll receive a prorated refund of the contract fees minus an 8 percent cancellation fee.

If you're moving, you can transfer your home warranty to the new homeowner. You can also cancel your current plan. If you buy a new plan, you can have the cancellation fee waived. This option to cancel and buy a new plan offers helpful flexibility and isn't a common option for the industry.

Charitable Donations

Elite Home Warranty isn't only committed to its customers, it's also committed to giving back to the community. The company donates a portion of its revenues to a variety of charitable organizations, providing support to veterans and military families, child education programs, cancer organizations, and more.

Cons

  • Limited Elite Home Warranty Reviews
  • No Commercial Appliance Coverage

Limited Elite Home Warranty Reviews

Elite Home Warranty Reviews are currently limited making it difficult to know what the customer experience is like with the company.

No Commercial Appliance Coverage

While Elite Home Warranty offers coverage for a much wider range of appliances and systems than many other home warranty companies, it doesn't cover commercial appliances — appliances that are specified by a manufacturer for commercial and/or business use.

gavel

The Bottom Line

Although Elite Home Warranty is a young but reliable home warranty company offering a variety of plans and coverage options. The ability to customize your coverage is unique and ensures that you're paying for the specific services that you might need. 

Elite's home warranty plans have attractive features like a 60-day, money-back guarantee and a build-your-own plan option. In addition, filing claims is a simple process that can be completed online or through Elite's Claims Concierge which connects customers with a single point of contact throughout the claims process. 

Elite Home Warranty reviews are currently limited and so we aren't able to provide an accurate recommendation of this company based on customer sentiment at this time. We recommend comparing home warranty companies and reading customer reviews before making a decision and signing a service contract with any home warranty company.

If you choose to work with Elite Home Warranty, be sure to review a contract before making a purchase decision.

Elite Home Warranty Frequently Asked Questions

What is a home warranty?

A home warranty is a contractual agreement. This agreement provides you with coverage of basic home systems and appliances that break down due to natural wear and tear. Your specific agreement will detail the terms for repairing or replacing covered items. Elite Home Warranty offers best in class plans that provide the utmost transparency and peace of mind for homeowners nationwide.

How is a home warranty different from homeowners insurance?

Homeowners insurance covers acts of God and natural disasters, such as fires and floods. This is usually mandated by a mortgage provider. Insurance is also regulated at state and federal levels. What insurance doesn’t cover is the basic wear and tear on appliances and systems in your homes. That’s where home warranties come in. A home warranty plan can cover your major home systems (such as HVAC, electrical and plumbing) as well as a selection of home appliances (such as refrigerators, oven, washer/dryer, etc.). This provides another layer of support and protects a homeowner from having to pay enormous costs for repairs and replacements in the home.

Do I need a home warranty and homeowners insurance?

Homeowners insurance covers acts of nature and disasters. For example, if there is a severe weather event that causes damage to your home, that damage should be covered by homeowners insurance. Insurance is regulated by the government and is usually required by law as part of a title. In contrast, home warranties cover systems and appliances in the home. These are things not covered by homeowners insurance. Once the manufacturer warranty on an air conditioning or washer/dryer has run out, a home warranty fills in the gap, protecting homeowners from costly repairs or replacements. Insurance and a home warranty are two different services, both of which are needed if you are going to be fully covered.

Will a home warranty company fix my appliances and systems?

Home warranty agreements cover the appliances and systems in your house. There are a variety of ways in which this could work. If a covered appliance or system breaks down, Elite Home Warranty will mobilize its local team of contractors to get on the job and help you out. This may mean replacing or repairing the covered item. You will have to refer to the terms of your agreement to know the extent of work a contractor can and will do in your home.

What is covered?

Elite Home Warranty's plans cover a variety of common household appliances and systems. Additional items can be added as an upgrade, for an additional cost. The company covers all mechanical components and parts needed to perform the full functionality of any covered appliances and systems. You can visit Elite Home Warranty's plans and pricing page to compare our available plans.

What appliances does a home warranty cover?

Elite Home Warranty will provide home warranty agreements for the appliances in your home. These include things like your washer and dryer, refrigerator, stove, cooktop, microwave, and dishwasher. There are numerous, additional items that can be covered. You can contact the company for a free sample agreement to see all of the appliances you could include in a home warranty plan.

What systems does a home warranty cover?

Elite Home Warranty provides coverage for home systems, including heating/cooling/HVAC, plumbing, water heater, garage door opener, and electrical systems. These systems don’t have to be new; they simply need to be well maintained. If they break down due to regular wear and tear, you can get full coverage according to the terms of your agreement.

What is not covered?

Elite Home Warranty's plans cover one of each type of appliances and systems that are covered under your selected plan. The company does not cover any additional items unless you purchase additional coverage. The company also does not cover maintenance services such as cleaning and tune ups.

Can I get coverage for old appliances and systems?

Yes, you can. Elite Home Warranty has no age restrictions. One of the benefits of home warranties is that older appliances can be covered. Home warranties don't cover items that are still under manufacturer warranty. Once an item has aged out of those agreements, home warranties can become the safety net for your budget. While there are some restrictions, many older appliances can still be covered by a home warranty.

Is there a waiting period?

Like most home warranty companies, Elite Home Warranty has a 30-day waiting period. If you are switching to Elite from another home warranty provider and have proof of existing coverage, this waiting period may be waived. It can also be waived by providing the company with valid home inspection documents that are not older than 90 days.

I am not a paid actor, just an average home owner. I just got Elite Home Warranty coverage in April, 2024 and have already have had to use it twice since then and it's only July. I was nervous upon signing at first as they are located in Brooklyn, NY and I'm in Yardley, PA, but they had the best deals so I thought I'd give them a try. I want to tell you...THEY ARE NO MISTAKE! They have already paid me $500 cash for my Microwave to be replaced and just today, another $419 reimbursement coming via direct deposit to my checking acct. in just a few days, for an electrical breaker for my pool that my "own" electrical technician, whom I was allowed to choose, charged me. They are quick, easy to work with and extremely fair. I'm paying about $800 a year for over $18K worth of claims coverage allowed and they allow me to pay it monthly. Now how can you beat that?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HIGHLY recommend them and on top of all that, they're extremely nice and thorough!

My washing machine was leaking water. Elite sent a technician who said he couldn't find a leak. He left without doing anything and I still had to pay a $70 service call fee, which made me upset. Then Brandon from Elite called me and said he would sent someone else for a second opinion. The next technician pointed out that the machine probably couldn't handle the amount of clothes I was putting in it. He showed me the residue from the water that splashes out when the machine is too full. He recommended that I run half-size loads and get washing machine cleaning tablets. He also said there could be a drainage problem behind the machine. I moved in a few months ago and I don't know how the previous owners were abusing the machine. I was happy to get advice on how to maintain my washing machine.

I am rating the initial customer service experience. Nir was helpful, knowledgeable and non-abrasive. He did not use aggressive sales tactics or coercion and allowed me time to consider my decision while assessing multiple quotes. I appreciate the promptness with which he shared information and discussed service options, which surprisingly not all company do well. While this was not my cheapest option I think his display of professionalism, attentiveness and accessibility bode well for future interactions with the company. As I have said, this was review is solely based on my initial sign up experience but I think the add early communications are indicators of the service you can expect.

The sales system is cumbersome (no opportunity to buy online, but lots and LOTS of follow-up after a quote request, from different people, with different offers that are hard to compare). Once I called back, though, the rep I spoke with (Cesar) was very straightforward and helpful.

George Price Miami, FL

I was skeptical about signing up with Elite Home Warranty because I had another home warranty company years ago and I was very unhappy with them. I own a multi-family home and it is not always convenient for me to oversee repairs since I have a very demanding full-time job, as well. I have a couple of friends who subscribe to Elite and based upon their satisfaction, I decided to try Elite. It was the best decision ever! Their representative, Tracy, is fantastic. She listened to my problem and understood that I had tenants involved when scheduling the repair. She personally contacted my tenant and set up the date, time, etc. to fit their time schedules. She reported back to me as to the progress of the repair. She went over the company's policy to me so that everything was clear in my mind as to what I was responsible for. She even gave me her direct phone number so that I could reach her at my convenience. The repair was completed in record time. She is definitely someone who understands the true meaning of the customer service concept! Needless to say, I am extremely happy with Elite and the service that Tracy provided. I highly recommend them to anyone.

Gloria Miller Miami, FL

Elite Home Warranty is probably one of the best decisions that I've ever made. I am a widow, and I was used to my husband taking care of everything in our house. After he died, I realized that I needed help with maintaining my home. I checked a few home warranty companies and decided on Elite. I am thrilled with their service. From the beginning I knew that I was in good hands. At first, I was apprehensive about placing a claim. The representative that helped me literally treated me like family. Her name is Tracy and she should be given the recognition that she deserves. She listened to my problem and immediately began to find solutions. She arranged for a technician to come to my home that same day. She stayed with me during the entire process. And she followed up with me afterwards to be sure that I was satisfied with what had been done. She even provided me with her direct line so that I could reach her quickly. Honestly, I've never had such wonderful customer service. She communicated everything to me in terms that I could understand. Not only am I a very happy customer but more importantly, I am secure with the knowledge that if something goes wrong in my home, Elite is there to take care of me - no more worries.

I have been an American Home Shield customer for over two years. Over the last year and a half, I have experienced a change within the company after experiencing difficulty working with their customer service department and service contractors. After some research and another difficult contract work experience, I decided to go Home Warranty service shopping. There were so many available to sort through, when I happened upon Elite Home Warranty. I went through Elite's website and researched it's business model and logistics. I was extremely leery due to not finding much wrong with this company. I dug even further and found that they've adapted to accommodate even older systems and appliances for their customers. Last thing, I checked the BBB ( Better Business Bureau ). How does and A+ , Five Stars and ZERO complaints since accreditation 12/13/2021. They are Military/Veteran friendly and each associate I spoke to was clear, concise and very informative. This kind of care and outreach is important to me and I look forward to the reporting of future experiences with them. I encourage you to research and do your due diligence in finding another company that can exceed and compare to Elite.

I have only been with Elite for about a month but so far my experience has been great. I filed my first claim yesterday and the process was very smooth. I do wish there was an option to file a claim online but my call was answered quickly and my claim professional was knowledgeable and courteous. She was able to get someone out same day which never happened with my previous home warranty company. She even followed up today to ensure my issue had been resolved. I am really glad I made the switch!

I found Elite Home Warranty and when I contacted them about more information for a warranty plan for my home I was helped right away. There was very little to no wait time for a customer service agent and he wanted to make sure I understood everything and had no questions at all in the end. I think I made the right choice with picking Elite Home Warranty. After talking with other companies also I could tell the customer service agent here at least understood what he was talking about and was not pushy at all.
